Nemo was on TV recently

12:14 am

helenkeller

tooter turtle always wanted to be something he wasn't - a doctor, lawyer, indian chief .... mr. wizard would change him into what he wanted to be & invariably tooter turtle got in a jam & had to call for mr. wizard

12:15 am

flosey

12:15 am

jillibus

12:15 am

helenkeller

12:15 am

mymuseisme

Ah, Radio City - saw so many shows there

12:16 am

12:16 am

helenkeller

douglas - that's what i always thought too, but when i googled tooter - it said DRizzle, Drazzle .....

12:17 am

Douglas

Cartoons made in the 60's would be mocked to scorn these days by children for the lameness of their production values...

12:17 am

helenkeller

yes mymus - douglas is right, it was very comforting, you would have liked it

12:18 am

A panda walks into a cafe. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and fires two shots in the air.
'Why?' asks the confused waiter, as the panda makes towards the exit. The panda produces a badly punctuated wildlife manual and tosses it over his shoulder.
'I'm a panda,' he says, at the door. "look it up.'
The waiter turns to the relevant entry and, sure enough, finds an explanation.
'P a n d a. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves.'

jaianniah

Now, for clues....????

4:53 am

jaianniah

TY< JFB. TY so much.

4:54 am

PappouTed

it'll take time. A nice thing happened last week. I went to pay my cable bill which includes my phone and I mentioned that it makes a funny dial tone. They told me that I had messages on voice mail. I told them I don't use it and to delete them, but she said go home and listen to the messages then you can call and cancel. I went home, I listened and the first message was from my dad on his birthday. I'm so glad I didn't cancel

4:55 am

jaianniah

Oh, wow!

4:56 am

PappouTed

yup, it's only a few seconds and it's his giggle, but it's there to listen to anytime I want

4:57 am

JFB

Wow PappouTed how great that was. Had the same sort of thing last week - cleared out the hall coat rack and found Dad's favourite cap that he was going to collect but didn't have time.

4:57 am

PappouTed

cool, JFB

4:57 am

jaianniah

That's neat!

4:58 am

how was the sashimi?

5:40 am

Colhad

hello Mrvicepresident :P

5:40 am

mrpresident

yumbo!!

5:40 am

mrpresident

I have never had sashimi octopus before! it was different!

5:41 am

FranMag

it's cooked a little first, otherwise it would be a slimy mess!

5:41 am

mrpresident

yes, you are right fran! it was pinkish :)

5:41 am

Colhad

I'd hope it was cooked first ;)

5:42 am

mrpresident

now I have found out that sashimi scallops are divine!

5:42 am

Angb

Best meal I ever had was venison sashimi ... with raw egg and sesame seeds

5:42 am

mrpresident

venison sashimi (carpaccia?) would be a treat!!

5:43 am

Colhad

some things aren't meant to be raw....specially eggs ;)

5:43 am

Angb

You'd be surprised Colhad - that's what I thought till I tried it.

5:43 am

mrpresident

raw eggs! make my stomach turn green and then drop out!!

5:44 am

Angb

Supposedly the Korean way ...

5:44 am

FranMag

in Guam we have a small wild deer species roaming the jungle and raw venison with lemon, shoyu, onions and hot pepper is a treat at the best parties.

5:44 am

Angb

Sounds great Fran

5:45 am

FranMag

it is great angb! my mouth is watering just thinking about it.

5:45 am

mrpresident

I want ice cream... and a large amount!

5:46 am

Angb

My sound was studying about whale hunting ... Japanese have whale icecream

5:47 am

FranMag

okay mrp, you just need to stop! it's the middle of the night here and no sashimi or ice cream is close at hand.

5:47 am

mrpresident

oh sorry fran!! LOL ;)

5:47 am

FranMag

hmmm, don't know if that sounds too good angb. i'd try it though.

5:47 am

FranMag

:-)

5:48 am

mrpresident

poor whales

5:48 am

Angb

After the whale hunting bit I don't know about my moralistic side - maybe a taste.

5:51 am

mrpresident

whale hunting is an atrosity... and the bullshit they say (for scientific study) is what upsets me the most. Obviously the whale hunting countries have a taste for it or they wouldn't hunt it. Also, the blubber is very useful in industry. Still. Poor whales.

5:51 am

Angb

They teach children in Japanese shcools to eat whale. Free whale meat for lunch or something.

5:52 am

jg26

that's a shocker angb

5:52 am

mrpresident

why can't they have whale nuggets... it could be turnip with essence of whale... like some fast food restaurants do here with chicken nuggets

5:53 am

Angb

It was quite nasty doing the project - my 8 year son has decided he is going to be a marine biologist and protect dolphins and whales.

5:53 am

jg26

is that true mrp?...so vegetarians can indulge

5:53 am

mrpresident

good on him!

5:54 am

FranMag

that's cool angb!

5:54 am

mrpresident

there is a company in Perth that imports vegetarian chicken nuggets... they are expensive as heck, but yes, you can indulge! They taste quite ok

5:54 am

Angb

I am rather proud of him.

5:55 am

jg26

how bizzare

5:55 am

mrpresident

you should be Angb! he has a heart and soul of gold!

5:55 am

jg26

not you angb, i'd be proud of him too

5:55 am

Angb

You can see are from downunda ... hope Aus is supporting the banning of whale hunting ...

5:57 am

mrpresident

they are supporting it unfortunately

5:58 am

Angb

Aaah - the almighty economic dollar?

5:58 am

mrpresident

Australia nonetheless recognises the needs of some subsistence cultures to continue traditional whaling methods and the use of whale products to meet demonstrated traditional, cultural and dietary needs.... ergo, hunt whales

5:59 am

Angb

It seems that the Japanese did not start eating whale until after WW2 so it is supposedly all BS

As I said, I took that photo off my back steps this morning...the dawn was gorgeous with the mist....Katrina took out a lot of the trees, tho...so sad.....but at least the ones that are left are now standing straight instead of leaning.....

9:32 am

What a year this has been....

9:32 am

JFB

What a beautiful view to have - we look out on other houses front and back.

9:33 am

jaianniah

It's piney wetlands- we have all sorts of interesting critters and plants...even insectivore plants.....and alligators, to boot....when they migrate in the fall...

9:35 am

jaianniah

I hear they prefer Labs for lunch, so I keep a close watch on my dog, Ivan (a Hurricane refugee) who is a Lab...LOL

9:36 am

JFB

The alligators are probably less dangerous than some of the neighbours!!

9:38 am

jaianniah

VERY TRUE!!!!!! We have these neighbors....there are seven adults in that house, plus four kids...eight cars, which they fix at 11PM by revving the engines after they have a couple of cases of beer...you get the idea.....They also have five horses which graze in their front yard when they want the lawn mowed....<sigh>

9:41 am

jaianniah

Actually, the horses have to pick their way around the cars for the grass....

9:42 am

jaianniah

Now you know why Alabama's state slogan is "NOT Mississippi"....

9:44 am

saphyre

I think their relatives live in Maryland jai - no horses - just cars -

9:45 am

saphyre

but the house owner's nickname is "Gator"

9:46 am

Talking about chikens having these appendages of ours,I remember the old joke abut Dylan Thomas, mystified byb the American habit of calling chicken bre*** "white meat", offering his hostess a corsage with the injunction "Here, stick this on your white meat"

My mom came home from California, smothered my son with love and he got sick and now I am sick

10:12 am

I wouldn't, but legally in this country often to be in public you must, if you are female or if it is your kink

10:39 am

TeaNCrackers

in some places, revealing the nipples is illegal

10:39 am

TeaNCrackers

I thought so too, charm, that's why I looked it up - mabye a different spelling?

10:39 am

Gems24

Im lost???

10:39 am

Haz - Tiggsey - He made a vile mess in cat carrier on way there & back & yowled the entire way! He had an antibiotic injection & has to go back again tomorrow. (Tax cost £18 in the end & vet fees £17.17.)

stidmama

*confused look* Taxi more than the vet? Wow.

11:06 am

Jacula

Haz - Daughter's taking him tomorrow. She can chase him round the house and have 10 attempts at stuffing him into the cat carrier, too! Both cats have to go next week for their vaccinations.:(

11:06 am

Can't the one cat get his vaccinations while he's there tomorrow?
